We were thrilled to bring Alice Kolb, nationally known educator, to The Main House for a 2 1/2 day retreat February 5th - 7th. Alice is best known for her classic embellishment techniques using altered basic stitches and a variety of threads. Alice's only requirement is that you come with a willingness to try different stitches and techniques.
The class began on Sunday afternoon with an introduction to successful combination of thread, fabric, and needle. The Sunday class even had a private shopping excursion to Creations to gather additional supplies for the next day's class.
The emphasis of the class was on embellishment possibilities in a small sampler technique, focusing on success with thread, needle and stitch choices to create beautiful end results.
